Who Did John McCain Vote For?

Posted by Greg Hambrick on Fri, May 9, 2008 at 1:57 PM

Arianna Huffington laid the groundwork for scandal earlier this week, claiming that Sen. John McCain told her that he didn’t vote for President Bush in 2000 (which would put him among the majority of Americans, but we digress). The campaign says the conversation didn’t happen, but two actors of The West Wing came out later in the week to say they were there and heard him say it too. Well, that got us wondering who McCain voted for if not Bush. Sure, he may have voted for Gore or wrote in his own name, but we have a few more alternatives:

Tiger Woods — athlete of the year; would have deflated some of this “change” talk for the 2008 race.

Brad Pitt — named Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine the week of the election — and if there’s one thing the White House has been lacking, it’s a pretty face.

Regis Philbin — Millionaire was on four nights a week, and, hey, those gruff, old chatter-boxes have to stick together.

Carlos Santana — rocker working across the aisle, topping the charts with pop-enthused “Smooth” and the urban-inspired “Maria Maria.”

Andrea Gail — the old fishing boat at the center of "The Perfect Storm" that struggled through the waves before falling to the battering surf — dashing the hopes of audiences everywhere.

From Butler Shaffer over at Lewrockwell.com: "John McCain is trying to put down the charge that he had said, at a 2000 Hollywood dinner party, that he had not voted for George W. Bush for president. A number of guests at this party have apparently stated that they heard McCain make this comment at the time. McCain's present response is that this took place eight years ago, and that it was time to put such matters aside. If the passage of eight years renders events irrelevant to the present, what about McCain's (and his supporters) continuing reference to his being held as a POW during the Vietnam War from 1967-1973?" http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/020906.html
